I’m ready to make the transition, step away from the corporate grind, and finally live life on my own terms. Your story and the structure you’ve built through LocumOS really inspired me.
I recently purchased LocumOs and just dropped a comment in the group— I’ve been incredibly impressed. I’m almost through the entire thing, and have been watching it between shifts on my current travel assignment.
The course is clear, actionable, and exactly what I needed. It really resonated with me, especially as someone who’s always had a strong entrepreneurial drive and a deep desire to build something of my own.
What stood out the most was the alignment with my own goals: I’m ready to make the transition, step away from the corporate grind, and finally live life on my own terms. Your story and the structure you’ve built through LocumOS really inspired me.
Thanks again for creating something that’s helping physicians like me take that leap. Really strong work brother!
P.S. Applause on the excellent taste in cars. Buying an exotic is a life goal of my own.
LocumOS does a great job at covering all the basics you would need to get started as a locums physician and to dive forward with a boost of confidence.

Like myself, most doctors come out of residency with skills sequestered only to medicine. Finally having the business side of things broken down into clean and digestible pieces was invaluable. The videos were succinct but still packed with knowledge. Whenever I had a little downtime, I could easily squeeze in a few videos. Better yet, the mobile app made it even more accessible throughout my day.
As a recent graduate, it felt overwhelming knowing where to start, not only as an attending but as a new locums doctor as well. To try connecting with others felt like sending out a distress signal into various online forums hoping to get an answer back. LocumsOS not only provides courses, but also a community; somewhere people with all levels of expertise can easily share their experiences and help each other grow to their full potential. Any question, anytime, anywhere, this is the place I know I can turn to.
Dr. Chaudhary is generous with his knowledge and supportive of docs, looking for a better way to leverage our expertise and career to maximize the return on time and expertise… I am no longer hesitant to dictate my hourly wage and turn down shifts that aren’t adequately reimbursed.
Dr. Chaudhary’s Locum‘s course is thorough and expertly arranged in bite-size clips perfect for the emergency room physician. He has a wealth of information gained over years of real time experience that would benefit anyone interested in trying out this career path. Just as he is in person, Dr Chaudhary is generous with his knowledge and supportive of docs, looking for a better way to leverage our expertise and career to maximize the return on time and expertise. He is an integral force in supporting the locum community to help raise us all up.
Since working with him, I am no longer hesitant to dictate my hourly wage and turn down shifts that aren’t adequately reimbursed. This has resulted in many higher, paying opportunities that I would’ve never had otherwise.
I even learned a few things I never knew about travel perks, business organization, and credit card hacks!
Just about anyone in emergency medicine looking to learn more about Locum would benefit from this course.
Through LocumOS, I learned step-by-step strategies that eliminated the guesswork.
The biggest transformation has been mindset — a clear playbook and the confidence to make locums work on my terms. Thank you, Ali, for being such a life-changing mentor.
I’m an early-career Emergency Medicine physician, just transitioning from residency into my first attending role. Before working with LocumOS, I thought full-time W2 employment was the only path available to me. After spending a year in that model, I knew there had to be more. I first came across Ali on YouTube and in the EM Docs Facebook group. As I read and listened to his posts, I realized the discomfort I was feeling stemmed from knowing my career could be so much more—and Ali confirmed that. I reached out, and he has since become a truly life-changing mentor.
Through LocumOS, I’ve learned practical, step-by-step strategies that removed so much of the guesswork from the process. I now know how to structure my locums career intentionally, negotiate rates with confidence, and build systems that give me more control over my time and income.
The biggest transformation has been mindset. I went from feeling reactive and uncertain to feeling like I’m firmly in the driver’s seat of my career. That confidence has already led to stronger contracts and greater clarity about my long-term goals.
I would highly recommend LocumOS to new attendings, residents about to graduate, or any physician seeking to build a sustainable and flexible locums career. It’s not just about learning the mechanics—it’s about gaining a clear playbook and the confidence to make the locums path truly work for you. And Ali has built a supportive community that makes this journey even more impactful.
Thank you, Ali, for being such a life-changing mentor.
One of the most valuable aspects of this program is the way it walks you through the steps of setting yourself up as an independent contractor. Thankfully, I was able to establish my LLC and S-Corp with the support of a financial advisor and tax advisor who truly did their homework for me.
LocumOS is an absolute game changer for emergency medicine physicians. As someone who graduated residency 12 years ago, I can honestly say I wish this resource had been available when I was just starting out. The transition from training to practice can be overwhelming, especially when it comes to understanding the business and financial side of being a physician.
LocumOS makes that process clear, approachable, and empowering for new residents who may not have had any exposure to these topics during training.
One of the most valuable aspects of this program is the way it walks you through the steps of setting yourself up as an independent contractor. Thankfully, I was able to establish my LLC and S-Corp with the support of a financial advisor and tax advisor who truly did their homework for me. For physicians entering locums work, having a strong financial and tax foundation is essential. The single best piece of advice I can share is to partner with a CPA and tax professional who understand the unique considerations of locums and 1099 employment. LocumsOS makes it clear why that matters and how to do it right.
What resonates most with me is the sense of ownership this course inspires. LocumsOS isn’t just about logistics—it’s about taking your power back, knowing your worth, and building a career that reflects your goals and values. For me, that’s meant the confidence to step into full-time locums with excitement instead of uncertainty.
I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to go through this program, and I truly believe it will change the trajectory for countless residents and practicing physicians alike. LocumOS provides the knowledge, tools, and mindset to thrive—not just survive—in emergency medicine.
I have made it through all the sections. I do think there is a lot of great info for someone who is new to the idea of 1099 work. I really like your approach to professionalism and work ethic.

Overall, locums can be a daunting career choice and I think you have provided a very clear path for physicians who want to do locums. I am grateful for your efforts as I have a lot to learn.

Fellow Physician,
What if your career could grow, even while you weren’t grinding yourself into the ground?
Not the illusion of stability. I mean scalable, system-driven freedom. Even while you’re sleeping, traveling, or actually living your life.
A few years ago, I was trapped in the W-2 matrix.
80-hour weeks. Endless night shifts. Administrators breathing down my neck. Every decision controlled by someone else.
I hadn’t built a career. I’d built a prison, one with fluorescent lights instead of corner office views.
My biggest regret? Staying stuck in employed medicine for as long as I did. That decision cost me millions, not just in income, but in freedom, in time with family, in the life I should have been living.
Today, my reality is completely different:
Multiple six figures a year in locums income.
Control over my schedule and where I work.
Freedom to say no to toxic administrators.
Time back for my family, passions, and faith.
The ability to live and practice medicine on my terms.
The difference?
I discovered that systems beat burnout. Every. Single. Time.
That’s why I created the Locum Freedom Workshop.
In just 90 minutes, I’ll walk you through the exact 3-step proven process (Clarity, Strategy, Execution) that shows physicians how to escape the W-2 trap, double their income, and reclaim their autonomy without recruiters, without CMGs, and without guesswork.
If you’ve been waiting for a sign to take control of your career, this is it.
See you inside,
Ali Chaudhary M.D.

How I escaped being just a cog-in-the-wheel at the hospital and became my own boss.
Why you don't need any business skills to build this (I had zero when I started).
How I now work only 8 shifts per month making $300k/yr while most docs grind 14+ shifts/month.
How I never ask for vacation time and disappear for weeks, whenever I want.
How I went from burnt-out doc to Physician-CEO.
